„Morning Glory Milking Farm” by C.M. Nascosta
BLURB
Violet is a typical, down-on-her-luck millennial: mid-twenties, over-educated and drowning in debt, on the verge of moving into her parents' basement. When a lifeline appears in the form of a very unconventional job in neighboring Cambric Creek, she has no choice but to grab at it with both hands.
Morning Glory Farm offers full-time hours, full benefits, and generous pay with no experience needed . . . there’s only one catch. The clientele is Grade A certified prime beef, with the manly, meaty endowments to match. Hands-on work with minotaurs isn’t something Violet ever considered as a career option, but she’s determined to turn the opportunity into a reversal of fortune.
When a stern, deep-voiced client begins to specially request her for his sessions at the farm, maintaining her professionalism and keeping him out of her dreams is easier said than done. Violet is resolved to make a dent in her student loans and afford name-brand orange juice, and a one-sided crush on an out-of-her-league minotaur is not a part of her plan—unless her feelings aren’t so one-sided after all.
MY OPINION
Looking at this cover, you just want to ask, “Why people are reading this?”
I know that, because I asked myself the exact same question the first time I saw „Morning Glory Milking Farm”.
I was simply curious — why does this weird book have so many positive reviews?
And you know how it goes — if you want to understand why everyone loves it, you have to check it out yourself.
So I did.
And now… I get it.
Meet Violet — a girl in her mid-twenties who’s struggling with money but desperately wants to live in her own rented apartment. She needs cash, and when she sees that Morning Glory Farm is looking for a new „milking technician”, she takes a leap of faith and applies.
What could possibly go wrong?
Apparently, nothing. Or… everything.
Fall accidentally in love with a minotaur?
Who knows?
„Morning Glory Milking Farm” is a book that really stands on the edge of several emotions.
While reading it, I felt embarrassed, curious, and fascinated — all at the same time.
Why? Good question.
I honestly have no idea.
Maybe because this book isn’t nearly as bad as I expected it to be?
I really liked how the author wrote this story. Rourke is a caring minotaur. With every move, he checks on Violet — how she feels, if everything’s okay. He’s not a typical arrogant, cocky romance hero. He’s just… a nice bull.
Yeah, I know how that sounds.
We’ve got spicy scenes here, but they’re written gently and tastefully. Sure, it’s still a bit weird to read a monster romance with a human–minotaur relationship, but Nascosta managed to make it surprisingly sweet.
Morning Glory Milking Farm was a new experience for me. I’ve read monster romances before, but they were shorter ones. This one is a full-length novel with likable characters and an actually interesting story.
If you had asked me about it a few days ago, I’d have said there’s no way this could be good.
But now, after finishing it, I can honestly say — it was a really nice read, and I definitely want to continue the Cambric Creek series.
